emotional sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

I understand the appeal of this book for others, but it was not for me. It had all of my least favorite tropes and minimal character development. Definitely check trigger warnings as it is full of trauma (not the ones you would assume from the back of the book)
This book is The Notebook only partly in Iran
